I just came back home from an important meeting in old Montreal (yes, it went well). I got off the bus, walked up to our driveway and had to face a mountain of snow so high, I didn’t know if I’d be able to make it to the house. I took one giant step. My knee disappeared in the whiteness. I took another step. I sank all the way down to my waist. I lost my balance and fell face first into the snow bank. I finally made it inside the house. The cat didn’t even try to run outside like he usually does when I open the door.
Now I have to go back and try to shovel all that snow. Guess who can’t help me because he’s got back problems? Yep. Him. At least he’ll cook me dinner.
Send a St-Bernard after me with a little barrel of whiskey if I don’t post again on this blog until Monday.
Update: 2 hours later…
Howdy!
I’m certain that Canadian Tire, or WalMart or some other place in your neck of the woods stocks a Toro electric shovel.
Electric shovel? I have my pride! Well, at least some pride…
